CUT!!!!!! Let's take it from the start.

Another attempt at standardization has failed.  The grid has some advantages BUT also some restrictions. 

For example, my 1830-1850 armies were resurrected as 3 stand infantry battalions with each stand being a "company" (as in Charge! but 6 figures instead of  19!) with the expectation that the "companies" could form as a battalion or be detached to occupy a house or guard a bridge etc.  Each of my squares hold 2 companies.......hmmm.... .  Its easier to just treat each stand as a "unit" and forget battalions or to increase my battalions to two stand "wings" but somehow it all just wasn't satisfying, especially from the narrative point of view.  

So, I've decided to go back to where I was last fall without the grid, but with the 3 stand infantry battalions.  The table has been reset and the first turns played as the approaching columns arrive at various times, and begin to deploy.
